Am I a candidate for a breast augmentation with fat transfer? (Photos)

In my opinion, fat grafting alone is not likely to give you your desired increase in breast size. You have an athletic build and it would be difficult to find enough fat for fat grafting alone to have a meaningful change. In my opinion if you combined a small breast implant with a small amount of fat grafting that can be taken from your hips or lateral thighs you would be able to achieve a nice natural result with a meaningful increase in your breast size while maintaining a nice figure.

You can try it if you like. But be realistic about the results. Look at before and afters online bearing in mind those are supposed to be good result. Bottom line. It ain’t it’s all cracked up to be

Dear Rosinz,
fat transfer breast augmentation is a viable alternative for women who desire larger breasts without the use of implants. Fat transfer is also widely used in reconstruction of the breast after a mastectomy or lumpectomy. It can also be very effective in correcting the size and shape of the breasts due to genetic problems such as tuberous breast or Poland Syndrome, two conditions that look like misshapen or underdeveloped breasts.In addition, the following scenarios are also reason to consider breast fat grafting:• If you have chest areas that appear creased and sunken• If you desire more permanent correction than is provided by temporary fillers• If you wish to improve your body contour, revise scars, fill bodily depressions and rejuvenate the natural curve of your breasts• To fill in contour irregularities or hide obvious signs of breast implantsYou should discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon and make sure your surgeon understands your concerns and your breast augmentation goals. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
